Qin Gong

Slowly walked out from among the officials, and came to the center of the hall. Under the gaze of everyone, Bai Yan raised his hands and saluted Ying Zheng Ji on the hall.

Jing Ke naturally also saw Bai Yan at this time.

"Your Majesty, since the Deputy Envoy of the Yan Kingdom is inconvenient because of Bai Yan, why not let Bai Yan carry the Yan Tu to follow the envoy! Make up for Bai Yan's mistakes!"

Bai Yan stood in the center of the hall, Ji Li said.

In the state of Qin, officials of the state of Qin were not only not allowed to step forward with swords in hand, but also in the main hall, without Ying Zheng's permission, they were not allowed to go too far forward, let alone cross the steps in front. Those who disobeyed would have serious consequences.

That ladder symbolizes the power of King Qin, as well as the majesty of King Qin, the bottom line, and those who approach without authorization, as if despising the bottom line and touching the throne, not only the person on the throne cannot tolerate it, the royal family, and even the entire Qin country, will not agree .

Therefore, even if the sky is falling, no one is willing to touch it, no matter for any reason.

Before coming, Wei Lao had also reminded Bai Yan that although he was saving Yingzheng, it would be too easy to be criticized by the world if he stepped forward and touched the bottom line. After all, an act of ignorance is not a threat to the throne.

"Your Majesty, the matter of Hangu Pass was initiated by the Deputy Envoy, and the contest was also proposed by the Deputy Envoy. How could General Bai be at fault?"

When Jing Ke heard Bai Yan's words, he quickly turned his head and saluted Ying Zheng in the main hall.

Worried about Bai Yan touching the map, I was going to finish the rest and reject Bai Yan's proposal to Ying Zheng.

Unexpectedly, at this time, a thought suddenly appeared in Jing Ke's mind.

Maybe this is an opportunity!The chance to kill Bai Yan and Ying Zheng in one fell swoop!
Thinking of what Gongzi Dan had told him before, Bai Yan must be killed during this trip, causing chaos in Yanmen, leaving the iron cavalry without a leader, and minimizing the danger to the Yan Kingdom.

Jing Ke became short of breath, and finally made up his mind.

"Your Majesty, if General Bai stepped forward, he was doing his best to serve His Majesty as a servant, a meager effort, not a fault!"

After Jing Ke compiled the ceremony, he changed the subject and said with a smile.

on the main hall.

Upon hearing Jing Ke's words, Ying Zheng looked at Bai Yan and nodded slightly.

"Bai Yan, you and the envoy of Yan will come up with the map of Yan!"

Ying Zheng said.

Since the envoys of the Yan State had no objections, and looking at the appearance of the deputy envoy of the Yan State, they were indeed too scared to walk. In addition, Bai Yan was worried about the attack on the envoys of Yan at Hangu Pass before, so he offered to submit the map of Yan. Ying Zheng would naturally not object.

Regarding the matter of Hangu Pass, unlike other officials, Ying Zheng knew very well that Bai Yan was not at fault, as envoy Yan said.

The rumors that the Deputy Envoy of the State of Yan is defiant, let’s not mention the truth or falsehood, but it is true that the Deputy Envoy of the State of Yan proposed the contest at Hangu Pass in the past, and in the end it was the Deputy Envoy of the State of Yan who was narrow-minded. He snatched Qin Jian and wanted to kill Bai Yan.

Under such circumstances, Bai Yan, who knocked down the Deputy Envoy of Yan State again, did not choose to kill the Deputy Envoy, causing Qin and Yan to have a bad relationship, which is considered a gentleman.

"No! Your honorable order!"

His Majesty, upon hearing Ying Zheng's permission, Bai Yan raised his hands and bowed to salute.

After the ceremony, Bai Yan watched Jing Ke carry the wooden box with both hands and turned to look at him under the watchful eyes of all the officials, so he slowly stepped forward.

"Master Jing!"

Bai Yan came in front of Jing Ke, clasped his hands and complied.

After Jing Ke returned the gift, he looked at Bai Yan with a smile.

"This time there is General Labor White!"

While Jing Ke was talking, he didn't let Bai Yan hold the Yan Tu, but gave Bai Yan the wooden box containing Fan Yuqi's head.

"This is Fan Yuqi, the leader of Qin's rebel general, and Jing Ke presented Yan Tu to the king!"

Jing Ke said to Bai Yan.

This is also telling Bai Yan in a disguised form that Fan Yuqi's head belongs to your Qin rebel general, and it is no problem for Qin general Bai Yan to present it, but the layout is Yan map, which is related to the territory of Yan State, so it should be him, Yan State. Presented by the envoy of the country.

Jing Ke's voice was not loud, but in the quiet hall, the officials on both sides of the hall, and even Ying Zheng in the hall could hear clearly.

Many officials in Qin's official uniforms nodded their heads one after another. Even Li Si, Kai Zhuang, Wei Liao, Hu Lao and others who were at the forefront of the civil and military officials couldn't fault Jing Ke.

Seeing this, Bai Yan naturally had no reason to object.

"nature!"

Bai Yan bowed to Jing Ke, then stretched out both hands, and took the heavy wooden box from Jing Ke's hand.

After Jing Ke handed the wooden box to Bai Yan, he looked at Bai Yan, then turned around, looked at Qin Wuyang, and spoke softly.

"Wuyang, give me Butu!"

Jing Ke's words were very gentle.

However, it was this kind of gentle voice like an elder brother that made Qin Wuyang, who bowed his head, tremble, and the hand holding Butu trembled.

Qin Wuyang raised his head calmly and looked at Jing Ke.

When he saw Jing Ke's deep eyes looking at him, Qin Wuyang's red eyes were full of shame, and the scared eyes met Jing Ke's eyes for a moment, and then he bowed his head guiltily.

Jing Ke didn't say anything more, and he didn't even look at Qin Wuyang any more. He just stretched out both hands, and gently picked up the layout from Qin Wuyang's hands.

this moment.

As Butu left Qin Wuyang's hands, Qin Wuyang's slightly trembling hands were particularly dazzling.

Jing Ke saw it.

Bai Yan also saw it.

Jing Ke turned around and walked towards Yingzheng, the impassioned words of his friend Gao Jian who was in Yishui that day kept echoing in his mind, "The wind is rustling and the water is cold in Yishui, and the strong man will never return when he is gone." Afraid of death, but full of heroism in his heart, he can repay Gongzi Dan's kindness with his life, and die without regret!
Inside the hall.

Accompanied by Jing Ke holding the map of Yan Kingdom to the stairs.

Le Shang and Tai Jing, among the officials, looked enviously at Bai Yan who walked up the stairs with Jing Ke.

On the terraces, not far away, is the king. The two of them dare not even think about being able to contact the king at such a close distance. But if they have a chance, they can be like Bai Yan. Generally speaking, going to Ying Zheng in person in front of civil and military officials is enough for them to go out and brag about the rest of their lives.

I really envy Bai Yan! !

Following the thoughts of the two.

soon.

In the eyes of the two, Bai Yan and Jing Ke went up the stairs and in front of Ying Zheng.

Uncle Meng, Meng Tian, ​​Lord Changping, Wang Wan, Li Si, Mr. Hu, Bai Yu...all the officials of Qin State in the main hall looked up to the top of the main hall, watching this scene.

No one noticed at this moment, Qin Wuyang's frightened appearance made his body tremble more and more.

In front of the throne in the hall.

Jing Ke and Bai Yan slowly stopped three steps away from Yingzheng, and after the eunuch came over with two seats, they knelt down and sat down.

Ying Zheng looked at Bai Yan first, because the wooden box in Bai Yan's hand contained Fan Yuqi's head.

Naturally, Bai Yan also noticed Ying Zheng's eyes, so he put the wooden box on the ground, picked up the lid of the wooden box with both hands and put it aside, the head that came into view also made Bai Yan see Fan Yuqi for the first time.

Although Fan Yuqi's head has been away from his body for a long time, after special treatment, most of his appearance can still be preserved.

Not to mention that when Bai Yan was young, he did corpse embalming and dealt with dead and rotting corpses all the year round. Even after coming to Qin, Bai Yan didn't know how many people he killed. Not only did he experience corpses on the battlefield, but he also personally Slashed the heads of many enemies.

Seeing the head in the wooden box now, Bai Yan's expression naturally remained the same, even his face remained unchanged.

Bai Yan held the wooden box and tilted it a little, asking Ying Zheng to confirm whether the head inside belonged to Fan Yuqi.

Followed by.

Under Bai Yan's watchful eyes, Ying Zheng's face with a hint of anger, when he saw the head in the wooden box, he quietly let out a sigh of relief and nodded slowly.

"good!"

Ying Zheng's words undoubtedly confirmed that the head was indeed Fan Yuqi's.

"Take it to the city gate and hang it on the city gate!"

Ying Zheng turned around and asked the eunuch beside him.

Bai Yan saw an eunuch approaching, handed over the wooden box in his hand, and then looked at Jing Ke beside him calmly.

Speaking of Tian Guang's death, Bai Yan may believe that he killed himself.

However, Bai Yan had a vague premonition that Fan Yuqi's head was probably killed by Jing Ke, and he chopped it off with his own hands, because according to news, it was Jing Ke who went to see Fan Yuqi alone in Jicheng. After a long time, what did he get? Yan Dan just rushed to Fan Yuqi's residence after hearing the news.

That is to say, no one knows what happened during that time, and only Jing Ke knows how Fan Yuqi died.

Although he has never met Fan Yuqi, but as a general of the Qin State, he still fled the Qin State knowing that he was guilty of the crime. The Zhi family members ignored it, which eventually caused Ying Zheng to be furious and directly ordered the Tu Clan. Such a person, and this experience, this One has to think about the specific cause of Fan Yuqi's death.

Was he killed, or was he forced to commit suicide?

But this is also Bai Yan's guess, now that Fan Yuqi's head is already here, no one will care how people die.

thought here.

Bai Yan turned his head to look at Ying Zheng with a relaxed face, as if his revenge had been avenged, and slowly lowered his head.

on the main hall.

Jing Ke waited until the eunuch took the wooden box away, then looked at Ying Zheng.

Ying Zheng closed his eyes and thought, opened his eyes, and looked into Jing Ke's eyes.

"Envoy Yan, don't worry, when Envoy Yan returns this time, I will give Envoy Yan thousands of gold and ten thousand households as promised!"

Ying Zheng said softly.

Ying Zheng's words spread in the hall, and among the civil and military officials, many officials couldn't help but look at each other, their eyes full of envy and longing.

Not to mention a thousand pieces of gold, even the Ten Thousand Households Food City is enough to make countless people thirsty and their hearts hot.

You must know that in the state of Qin, there are ten thousand households who live in towns, which can be counted on one hand, while other ministers, whether it is the general Wang Jian, or Li Si, Wei Liao, Lord Changping, etc., are only a thousand households. Well, even Bai Yan, who has made meritorious service several times in the past two years, has only a few hundred households.

If you can have this reward from ten thousand households, you will never have to worry about the glory and wealth in your life. The beauties, money and servants in the mansion are probably too numerous to count.

Le Shang and Tai Jing, who were at the back of the hundred officials, had already opened their mouths and were breathing rapidly. Looking at the back of the Yan envoy in the main hall, their eyes were already red with envy.

They wished they could kill the traitor general Fan Yuqi with their own hands.

"Thank you king!"

After hearing Yingzheng's promise, Jing Ke bowed to Yingzheng.

After the ceremony.

Jing Ke put the map on the ground.

"Your Majesty, this picture is the land of Dukang in my country of Yan, and I hereby dedicate it to Your Majesty!"

While Jing Ke was talking, he slowly opened the rolled up layout in front of Ying Zheng.

at this time.

Hearing Jing Ke's words, Ying Zheng couldn't help feeling a little fiery in his heart. His eyes instinctively looked at the layout slowly unfolding in the hands of envoy Yan, looking at the roads and cities marked on it.

Dukang map!

The corners of Yingzheng's mouth raised slightly. At this time, it had already appeared in his mind. After getting the map of Dukang, Qin State can focus on Wei State and Chu State in the future. As long as Qi State is stabilized, Wei and Chu are destroyed, the world Unification is within reach.

Just when Yingzheng fantasized about his good intentions in the future.

Twilight.

As Dukang Butu continued to unfold in Jingye's hands, when it unfolded to the end, suddenly a dagger with a cold glow appeared in front of Yingzheng.

For a while, Ying Zheng didn't react, and when he came back to his senses, his pupils shrank.

Jing Ke had already picked up the dagger with his hand and rushed towards Ying Zheng.

Ying Zheng's eyes widened, his face changed drastically, and he watched helplessly that the envoy from the Kingdom of Yan had already rushed in front of him.

When life is hanging by a thread.

Suddenly, a fast black shadow suddenly appeared in Yingzheng's field of vision, and kicked towards the assassinating envoy of Yan State.

Jing Ke naturally noticed it too, and his heart shook.

Jing Ke never dreamed that the young Bai Yan could react so quickly, he kicked him in the blink of an eye, and now he could only stretch out his hand to block.

With a muffled hum, Jing Ke's offensive was stopped in an instant, and he even took a step back.

This sudden scene made His Majesty's civil and military officials unable to react for a while.

what happened?

Mr. Hu, Bai Yu, Li Si, Wei Liao, Wang Wan and others all looked at the main hall with astonishment on their faces, and even Lord Changping, who had always been gloomy, couldn't help showing a look of doubt.

And when everyone came back to their senses, they noticed that the envoy of Yan, who was wearing the costume of an envoy of Yan, was holding a dagger in his hand.

In an instant.

Everyone's eyes widened, and they immediately realized what was happening above the main hall.

The envoy of Yan State dared to assassinate Ying Zheng! ! ! !
With this thought, everyone felt their scalps go numb and were extremely shocked.

But at this moment, before the officials shouted anything, they saw Jing Ke and Bai Yan fighting together again in the hall.

"die!"

Jing Ke held the dagger in his backhand, looked at Bai Yan who didn't have a sword, swung the dagger, coordinated with fists and feet, and attacked Bai Yan with fatal moves.

Because of Bai Yan's existence, and because he wanted to kill Bai Yan and Ying Zheng at the same time, Jing Ke was no longer prepared to hold back.

the other side.

Although Bai Yan has also practiced boxing and kicking, his physique is inevitably not as strong as Jing Ke's, and facing the dagger that reveals the cold light, Bai Yan is very clear that the dagger is smeared with poison, so he is afraid of it. Soon Jing Ke forced him to take a few steps back.

Seeing this, Jing Ke knew that time was running out. Seeing that Bai Yan was being forced to retreat, he immediately turned around and rushed towards Ying Zheng again. This time, the speed was still terrifying, and he even rushed towards him.

Just as Ying Zheng got up, seeing Jing Ke rushing again, he quickly dodged.

However, facing Jing Ke who was determined to die and ignored him, Ying Zheng couldn't dodge at all. The king's sleeve robe was caught by Jing Ke, and Jing Ke stabbed him with the other hand again.

At this moment, Ying Zheng's eyes were fixed on watching the sharp dagger approaching him. Time seemed to be at this moment, slowly slowing down. Ying Zheng's mind was buzzing, and the buzzing sound filled both ears. Filled the whole mind.

dead!
Will the widow die here today?
Suddenly, Yingzheng saw the assassinating envoy Yan being forced back again, and also noticed a young figure fighting desperately with envoy Yan.

Ying Zheng looked at the hands that he raised instinctively and slowly put them down.

There was a buzzing sound in his ears, and Ying Zheng looked around in a trance, seeing all the eunuchs retreating to the distance with fear on their faces, and seeing the panicked appearance of Xia Wu, the attendant medical officer.

Ying Zheng turned his head and saw His Highness, civil and military officials all standing together, shouting something, standing below with anxious faces.

"At this moment, come quickly!!"

"Your Majesty!! Your Majesty, run away!!!"

"Draw your sword, Your Majesty, draw your sword quickly!"

Suddenly, the buzzing voice in Ying Zheng's mind gradually disappeared, and countless noisy voices entered Ying Zheng's mind.

Ying Zheng came back to his senses and looked at Bai Yan who was fighting with the envoys of the Yan Kingdom, who was at a disadvantage but stood in front of him.

sword!
Wang Jian! ! !

Hearing the reminder from the officials, Ying Zheng immediately thought of his sword, so he turned around in panic and went to draw out his sword.

soon.

With the sword in his hand, Ying Zheng recovered from his panic and looked into the eyes of Jing Ke, the envoy of the Yan Kingdom, which was replaced by anger, and the angry eyes stared at Jing Ke firmly.

Seeing that the envoy of the Yan State forced Bai Yan to retreat, Ying Zheng could tell that the envoy of the Yan State was not only big and brave, but also very skilled in martial arts.

But at this moment, Ying Zheng, who was full of anger in his heart, could no longer control so much, holding the king sword, and stabbing towards Jing Ke when he found an opportunity.

The panic just now was because he didn't react and he didn't have much actual combat experience.

But this does not mean that Ying Zheng has not practiced martial arts.

"Damn you!"

Jing Ke held the dagger in his backhand and stabbed it from top to bottom, looking at Bai Yan with killing intent in his eyes.

Seeing Bai Yan with his hands crossed against his forearm, Jing Ke instantly kicked sideways.

Bai Yan stretched out his hand to block, but the huge force made Bai Yan feel dull pain. Bai Yan, who knew he couldn't fall down or Yingzheng would be in danger, made his body lean forward the moment he stepped back, but under the force, his feet still slipped. Get down on one knee.

Just when Bai Yan was preparing to continue to guard against Jing Ke.

I saw Jing Ke was suddenly stabbed in the shoulder by Ying Zheng who rushed out beside him.

"what!"

Due to Bai Yan's full efforts to stop him, Jing Ke couldn't be distracted all the time, so he didn't notice that Ying Zheng had drawn his sword and stabbed at him at some point.

Under the stinging pain, Jing Ke bit his gums and looked at Ying Zheng holding the king sword with ferocious eyes.

Enduring the pain, Jing Ke stretched out his hand and waved it with all his strength.

Jing Ke's original intention was to hurt Ying Zheng, and then he would take the opportunity to hurt Bai Yan. With the poison on the dagger, the two of them would surely die.

Never thought.

In an instant, Jing Ke saw a figure reappear.

It's Bai Yan!
"Oops!"

Jing Ke's heart was full of despair, he never expected that without a sword, Bai Yan would be so difficult and desperate.

Seeing that he waved with all his strength, was blocked by Bai Yan's hands again, and was also held tightly by Bai Yan,

Jing Ke kicked Bai Yan's thigh again, trying to make Bai Yan kneel down, and then hurt Ying Zheng again.

One leg, two legs, three legs.
However, what Jing Ke didn't expect was that Bai Yan was kicked hard by him again and again, but he refused to let go.

At this time, Jing Ke saw Ying Zheng who was full of anger and murderous intent in his eyes, and secretly thought it was bad.

really.

Accompanied by Ying Zheng, he pulled out the king sword and swung it with all his strength.

Jing Ke, who was captured by Bai Yan with one hand, had no place to dodge, and had no dagger to block, and was stabbed into the body by Ying Zheng with the king's sword one after another.

The sharp pain made Jing Ke realize that not only would he not escape death today, but it was also very likely that he would not be able to kill Ying Zheng and Bai Yan at the same time.

Thinking back to when he was in Yan State, Prince Dan treated him kindly for his kindness.

Jing Ke's eyes widened, enduring the severe pain, and roared angrily.

"what!"

Jing Ke no longer paid attention to Bai Yan.

Right now, Jing Ke couldn't care less, Bai Yan's reaction exceeded his expectations, Jing Ke no longer wanted to kill the two of them, but wanted to kill Ying Zheng before he died.

Under Bai Yan's gaze, Jing Ke ignored Wang Jian's fatal stab, and neither dodged nor dodged.

When he was puzzled, Bai Yan suddenly noticed that at some time, Jing Ke's other hand suddenly took out another dagger from his cuff.

"how is this possible?"

Seeing this scene, Bai Yan was shocked. In history, Jing Ke only had one dagger, why now there are two.

Before he had time to think about it, he watched Jing Ke being pierced by Wang Jian and wanted to stab Ying Zheng with all his might. He was already in no hurry to block it with his hands. , using all his strength, pushed Ying Zheng away in an instant.

As Bai Yan stood in Ying Zheng's position, there was a sharp pain in his shoulder in an instant.

Bai Yan took a breath, and in his mind, he only hoped that the dagger would only have the poison of Madam Xu.

Looking at Jing Ke with the king's sword stuck in his chest, he stumbled back two steps and fell beside the pillar, leaning against the huge pillar.

Bai Yan stood where he was, and didn't know whether it was the poison on his shoulders or the stimulation of this life-gamble, but he felt a chill on his back and cold sweat on his forehead.

"The reason why the matter failed was because I was greedy and wanted to get rid of Bai Yan together with Gongzi Dan's words~ Otherwise,~ otherwise Ying Zheng, today will be your death day!"

Jing Ke's face was extremely pale, with blood dripping from the corner of his mouth, and he looked at Ying Zheng sitting on the ground not far away with a miserable face, and said softly.

After speaking.

Jing Ke's eyes were full of unwillingness, and then exhausted his last bit of strength, he slowly turned his head to look at Bai Yan.

"There is poison on the dagger! Bai~Bai Yan, you shouldn't, you shouldn't have saved me!"

Jing Ke wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't finish. His whole head hung down as if he had lost its support, and his whole body slowly fell sideways on the wooden floor, and a thick blood on the ground continued to spread.

on the main hall.

Looking at this scene, Ying Zheng gasped heavily.

Accompanied by the maids and eunuchs helping Ying Zheng get up, after Ying Zheng got up, he looked at Bai Yan with a look of the rest of his life.

Ying Zheng knew that if Bai Yan hadn't pushed him away just now, he would be the one who was injured now.

And the assassin sent by the Yan Kingdom said in person that the dagger is highly poisonous! ! !

"Kings!"

Bai Yan watched Jing Ke die at this time, and when he breathed a sigh of relief, he turned his head and looked into Ying Zheng's eyes after panting.

Bai Yan wanted to compose the ceremony, but felt a limp feeling all over his body, just like the feeling of being injured and poisoned after being assassinated that night in Handan.

Feeling that his vision began to blur, Bai Yan suddenly felt that everyone in front of him was slowly spinning.

the rest.

Bai Yan no longer knew.

Xianyang City.

A carriage slowly drove into Xianyang City, inside the carriage, four men were sitting.

The two of them were Xiang Liang who led the dead men to assassinate Bai Yu before, and Qiang Gu who went to look for Xiang Liang when the Qin State attacked Korea and met his nephew by chance.

The two came to Xianyang this time, obviously because of Mi Zhao's death.
